Previously, the XLogReader module would fetch new input data using a
callback function. Redesign the interface so that it tells the caller
to insert more data with a special return value instead. This API suits
later patches for prefetching, encryption and maybe other future
projects that would otherwise require continually extending the callback
interface.
As incidental cleanup work, move global variables readOff, readLen and
readSegNo inside XlogReaderState.

There was some code in gen_prune_steps_from_opexps that needlessly
checked a list was not empty when it clearly had to contain at least one
item. This prompted a further cleanup operation in partprune.c.
Additionally, the previous code could end up adding additional needless
INTERSECT steps. However, those do not appear to be able to cause any
misbehavior.
gen_prune_steps_from_opexps is now no longer in charge of generating
combine pruning steps. Instead, gen_partprune_steps_internal, which
already does some combine step creation has been given the sole
responsibility of generating all combine steps. This means that when
we recursively call gen_partprune_steps_internal, since it always now adds
a combine step when it produces multiple steps, we can just pay attention
to the final step returned.
In passing, do quite a bit of work on the comments to try to more clearly
explain the role of both gen_partprune_steps_internal and
gen_prune_steps_from_opexps. This is fairly complex code so some extra
effort to give any new readers an overview of how things work seems like
a good idea.

Changing pg_stat_statements.track between 'all' and 'top' would control
if pg_stat_statements tracked just top level statements or also
statements inside functions, but when tracking all it would not
differentiate between the two. Being table to differentiate this is
useful both to track where the actual query is coming from, and to see
if there are differences in executions between the two.
To do this, add a boolean to the hash key indicating if the statement
was top level or not.
Experience from the pg_stat_kcache module shows that in at least some
"reasonable worloads" only <5% of the queries show up both top level and
nested. Based on this, admittedly small, dataset, this patch does not
try to de-duplicate those query *texts*, and will just store one copy
for the top level and one for the nested.

that would cause a crash. Fix by only ignoring detached partitions when
there's an active snapshot.
When dealing with overloaded function or operator names, having
to look through a long list of matches is tedious. Let's extend
these commands to allow specification of (input) argument types
to let such results be trimmed down. Each additional argument
is treated the same as the pattern argument of \dT and matched
against the appropriate argument's type name.
While at it, fix \dT (and these new options) to recognize the
usual notation of "foo[]" for "the array type over foo", and
to handle the special abbreviations allowed by the backend

VACUUM has never needed to call ambulkdelete() for each index in cases
where there are precisely zero TIDs in its dead_tuples array by the end
of its first pass over the heap (also its only pass over the heap in
this scenario). Index vacuuming is simply not required when this
happens. Index cleanup will still go ahead, but in practice most calls
to amvacuumcleanup() are usually no-ops when there were zero preceding
ambulkdelete() calls. In short, VACUUM has generally managed to avoid
index scans when there were clearly no index tuples to delete from
indexes. But cases with _close to_ no index tuples to delete were
another matter -- a round of ambulkdelete() calls took place (one per
index), each of which performed a full index scan.
VACUUM now behaves just as if there were zero index tuples to delete in
cases where there are in fact "virtually zero" such tuples. That is, it
can now bypass index vacuuming and heap vacuuming as an optimization
(though not index cleanup). Whether or not VACUUM bypasses indexes is
determined dynamically, based on the just-observed number of heap pages
in the table that have one or more LP_DEAD items (LP_DEAD items in heap
pages have a 1:1 correspondence with index tuples that still need to be
deleted from each index in the worst case).
We only skip index vacuuming when 2% or less of the table's pages have
one or more LP_DEAD items -- bypassing index vacuuming as an
optimization must not noticeably impede setting bits in the visibility
map. As a further condition, the dead_tuples array (i.e. VACUUM's array
of LP_DEAD item TIDs) must not exceed 32MB at the point that the first
pass over the heap finishes, which is also when the decision to bypass
is made. (The VACUUM must also have been able to fit all TIDs in its
maintenance_work_mem-bound dead_tuples space, though with a default
maintenance_work_mem setting it can't matter.)
This avoids surprising jumps in the duration and overhead of routine
vacuuming with workloads where successive VACUUM operations consistently
have almost zero dead index tuples. The number of LP_DEAD items may
well accumulate over multiple VACUUM operations, before finally the
threshold is crossed and VACUUM performs conventional index vacuuming.
Even then, the optimization will have avoided a great deal of largely
unnecessary index vacuuming.
In the future we may teach VACUUM to skip index vacuuming on a per-index
basis, using a much more sophisticated approach. For now we only
consider the extreme cases, where we can be quite confident that index
vacuuming just isn't worth it using simple heuristics.
Also log information about how many heap pages have one or more LP_DEAD
items when autovacuum logging is enabled.

This adds support for writing CREATE FUNCTION and CREATE PROCEDURE
statements for language SQL with a function body that conforms to the
SQL standard and is portable to other implementations.
Instead of the PostgreSQL-specific AS $$ string literal $$ syntax,
this allows writing out the SQL statements making up the body
unquoted, either as a single statement:
CREATE FUNCTION add(a integer, b integer) RETURNS integer
LANGUAGE SQL
RETURN a + b;
or as a block
CREATE PROCEDURE insert_data(a integer, b integer)
LANGUAGE SQL
BEGIN ATOMIC
INSERT INTO tbl VALUES (a);
INSERT INTO tbl VALUES (b);
END;
The function body is parsed at function definition time and stored as
expression nodes in a new pg_proc column prosqlbody. So at run time,
no further parsing is required.
However, this form does not support polymorphic arguments, because
there is no more parse analysis done at call time.
Dependencies between the function and the objects it uses are fully
tracked.
A new RETURN statement is introduced. This can only be used inside
function bodies. Internally, it is treated much like a SELECT
statement.
psql needs some new intelligence to keep track of function body
boundaries so that it doesn't send off statements when it sees
semicolons that are inside a function body.

Add a failsafe mechanism that is triggered by VACUUM when it notices
that the table's relfrozenxid and/or relminmxid are dangerously far in
the past. VACUUM checks the age of the table dynamically, at regular
intervals.
When the failsafe triggers, VACUUM takes extraordinary measures to
finish as quickly as possible so that relfrozenxid and/or relminmxid can
be advanced. VACUUM will stop applying any cost-based delay that may be
in effect. VACUUM will also bypass any further index vacuuming and heap
vacuuming -- it only completes whatever remaining pruning and freezing
is required. Bypassing index/heap vacuuming is enabled by commit
8523492d, which made it possible to dynamically trigger the mechanism
already used within VACUUM when it is run with INDEX_CLEANUP off.
It is expected that the failsafe will almost always trigger within an
autovacuum to prevent wraparound, long after the autovacuum began.
However, the failsafe mechanism can trigger in any VACUUM operation.
Even in a non-aggressive VACUUM, where we're likely to not advance
relfrozenxid, it still seems like a good idea to finish off remaining
pruning and freezing. An aggressive/anti-wraparound VACUUM will be
launched immediately afterwards. Note that the anti-wraparound VACUUM
that follows will itself trigger the failsafe, usually before it even
begins its first (and only) pass over the heap.
The failsafe is controlled by two new GUCs: vacuum_failsafe_age, and
vacuum_multixact_failsafe_age. There are no equivalent reloptions,
since that isn't expected to be useful. The GUCs have rather high
defaults (both default to 1.6 billion), and are expected to generally
only be used to make the failsafe trigger sooner/more frequently.

First, don't perform database access while holding a buffer lock.
When checking a heap, we can validate that TOAST pointers are sane by
performing a scan on the TOAST index and looking up the chunks that
correspond to each value ID that appears in a TOAST poiner in the main
table. But, to do that while holding a buffer lock at least risks
causing other backends to wait uninterruptibly, and probably can cause
undetected and uninterruptible deadlocks. So, instead, make a list of
checks to perform while holding the lock, and then perform the checks
after releasing it.
Second, adjust things so that we don't try to follow TOAST pointers
for tuples that are already eligible to be pruned. The TOAST tuples
become eligible for pruning at the same time that the main tuple does,
so trying to check them may lead to spurious reports of corruption,
as observed in the buildfarm. The necessary infrastructure to decide
whether or not the tuple being checked is prunable was added by

Formerly we were pretty lax about what a custom GUC's name could

However, corner cases such as dashes or equal signs in the name

just require that custom names look like "identifier.identifier",

The code in bringetbitmap() simply added the whole matching page range
to the TID bitmap, as determined by pages_per_range, even if some of the
pages were beyond the end of the heap. The query then might fail with
an error like this:
ERROR: could not open file "base/20176/20228.2" (target block
262144): previous segment is only 131021 blocks
In this case, the relation has 262093 pages (131072 and 131021 pages),
but we're trying to acess block 262144, i.e. first block of the 3rd
segment. At that point _mdfd_getseg() notices the preceding segment is
incomplete, and fails.
Hitting this in practice is rather unlikely, because:
* Most indexes use power-of-two ranges, so segments and page ranges
align perfectly (segment end is also a page range end).
* The table size has to be just right, with the last segment being
almost full - less than one page range from full segment, so that the
last page range actually crosses the segment boundary.
* Prefetch has to be enabled. The regular page access checks that
pages are not beyond heap end, but prefetch does not. On older
releases (before 12) the execution stops after hitting the first
non-existent page, so the prefetch distance has to be sufficient
to reach the first page in the next segment to trigger the issue.
Since 12 it's enough to just have prefetch enabled, the prefetch
distance does not matter.
Fixed by not adding non-existent pages to the TID bitmap. Backpatch
all the way back to 9.6 (BRIN indexes were introduced in 9.5, but that
release is EOL).
Backpatch-through: 9.6

certificates for different host specifications. (That would require
new server functionality. This would be the client-side functionality

Since SNI makes the host name appear in cleartext in the network
traffic, this might be undesirable in some cases. Therefore, also add
a libpq connection option "sslsni" to turn it off.

sensitive cursors are supported. It also adds a test case that checks

The "authenticated identity" is the string used by an authentication
method to identify a particular user. In many common cases, this is the
same as the PostgreSQL username, but for some third-party authentication
methods, the identifier in use may be shortened or otherwise translated
(e.g. through pg_ident user mappings) before the server stores it.
To help administrators see who has actually interacted with the system,
this commit adds the capability to store the original identity when
authentication succeeds within the backend's Port, and generates a log
entry when log_connections is enabled. The log entries generated look
something like this (where a local user named "foouser" is connecting to
the database as the database user called "admin"):
LOG: connection received: host=[local]
LOG: connection authenticated: identity="foouser" method=peer (/data/pg_hba.conf:88)
LOG: connection authorized: user=admin database=postgres application_name=psql
Port->authn_id is set according to the authentication method:
bsd: the PostgreSQL username (aka the local username)
cert: the client's Subject DN
gss: the user principal
ident: the remote username
ldap: the final bind DN
pam: the PostgreSQL username (aka PAM username)
password (and all pw-challenge methods): the PostgreSQL username
peer: the peer's pw_name
radius: the PostgreSQL username (aka the RADIUS username)
sspi: either the down-level (SAM-compatible) logon name, if
compat_realm=1, or the User Principal Name if compat_realm=0
The trust auth method does not set an authenticated identity. Neither
does clientcert=verify-full.
Port->authn_id could be used for other purposes, like a superuser-only
extra column in pg_stat_activity, but this is left as future work.
PostgresNode::connect_{ok,fails}() have been modified to let tests check
the backend log files for required or prohibited patterns, using the
new log_like and log_unlike parameters. This uses a method based on a

Arrange to do some things on-demand, rather than immediately during
executor startup, because there's a fair chance of never having to do
them at all:
* Don't open result relations' indexes until needed.
* Don't initialize partition tuple routing, nor the child-to-root
tuple conversion map, until needed.
This wins in UPDATEs on partitioned tables when only some of the
partitions will actually receive updates; with larger partition
counts the savings is quite noticeable. Also, we can remove some
sketchy heuristics in ExecInitModifyTable about whether to set up
tuple routing.
Also, remove execPartition.c's private hash table tracking which
partitions were already opened by the ModifyTable node. Instead
use the hash added to ModifyTable itself by commit 86dc90056.
To allow lazy computation of the conversion maps, we now set
ri_RootResultRelInfo in all child ResultRelInfos. We formerly set it
only in some, not terribly well-defined, cases. This has user-visible
side effects in that now more error messages refer to the root
relation instead of some partition (and provide error data in the
root's column order, too). It looks to me like this is a strict
improvement in consistency, so I don't have a problem with the

Commit f49bcd4ef3 disallowed postgres_fdw to import table partitions.
Because all data can be accessed through the partitioned table which
is the root of the partitioning hierarchy, importing only partitioned
table should allow access to all the data without creating extra objects.
This is a reasonable default when importing a whole schema. But there
may be the case where users want to explicitly import one of
a partitioned tables' partitions.
For that use case, this commit allows postgres_fdw to import tables or
foreign tables which are partitions of some other table only when they
are explicitly specified in LIMIT TO clause. It doesn't change
the behavior that any partitions not specified in LIMIT TO are
automatically excluded in IMPORT FOREIGN SCHEMA command.

Snapshot caching, introduced in 623a9ba79b, did not increment
xactCompletionCount during subtransaction abort. That could lead to an older
snapshot being reused. That is, at least as far as I can see, not a
correctness issue (for MVCC snapshots there's no difference between "in
progress" and "aborted"). The only difference between the old and new
snapshots would be a newer ->xmax.
While HeapTupleSatisfiesMVCC makes the same visibility determination, reusing
the old snapshot leads HeapTupleSatisfiesMVCC to not set
HEAP_XMIN_INVALID. Which subsequently causes the kill_prior_tuple optimization
to not kick in (via HeapTupleIsSurelyDead() returning false). The performance
effects of doing the same index-lookups over and over again is how the issue
was discovered...
Fix the issue by incrementing xactCompletionCount in
XidCacheRemoveRunningXids. It already acquires ProcArrayLock exclusively,
making that an easy proposition.
Add a test to ensure that kill_prior_tuple prevents index growth when it
involves aborted subtransaction of the current transaction.

Retry the call to heap_prune_page() in rare cases where there is
disagreement between the heap_prune_page() call and the call to
HeapTupleSatisfiesVacuum() that immediately follows. Disagreement is
possible when a concurrently-aborted transaction makes a tuple DEAD
during the tiny window between each step. This was the only case where
a tuple considered DEAD by VACUUM still had storage following pruning.
VACUUM's definition of dead tuples is now uniformly simple and
unambiguous: dead tuples from each page are always LP_DEAD line pointers
that were encountered just after we performed pruning (and just before
we considered freezing remaining items with tuple storage).
Eliminating the tupgone=true special case enables INDEX_CLEANUP=off
style skipping of index vacuuming that takes place based on flexible,
dynamic criteria. The INDEX_CLEANUP=off case had to know about skipping
indexes up-front before now, due to a subtle interaction with the
special case (see commit dd695979) -- this was a special case unto
itself. Now there are no special cases. And so now it won't matter
when or how we decide to skip index vacuuming: it won't affect how
pruning behaves, and it won't be affected by any of the implementation
details of pruning or freezing.
Also remove XLOG_HEAP2_CLEANUP_INFO records. These are no longer
necessary because we now rely entirely on heap pruning taking care of
recovery conflicts. There is no longer any need to generate recovery
conflicts for DEAD tuples that pruning just missed. This also means
that heap vacuuming now uses exactly the same strategy for recovery
conflicts as index vacuuming always has: REDO routines never need to
process a latestRemovedXid from the WAL record, since earlier REDO of
the WAL record from pruning is sufficient in all cases. The generic
XLOG_HEAP2_CLEAN record type is now split into two new record types to
reflect this new division (these are called XLOG_HEAP2_PRUNE and
XLOG_HEAP2_VACUUM).
Also stop acquiring a super-exclusive lock for heap pages when they're
vacuumed during VACUUM's second heap pass. A regular exclusive lock is
enough. This is correct because heap page vacuuming is now strictly a
matter of setting the LP_DEAD line pointers to LP_UNUSED. No other
backend can have a pointer to a tuple located in a pinned buffer that
can be invalidated by a concurrent heap page vacuum operation.
Heap vacuuming can now be thought of as conceptually similar to index
vacuuming and conceptually dissimilar to heap pruning. Heap pruning now
has sole responsibility for anything involving the logical contents of
the database (e.g., managing transaction status information, recovery
conflicts, considering what to do with HOT chains). Index vacuuming and
heap vacuuming are now only concerned with recycling garbage items from
physical data structures that back the logical database.
Bump XLOG_PAGE_MAGIC due to pruning and heap page vacuum WAL record
changes.
Credit for the idea of retrying pruning a page to avoid the tupgone case
goes to Andres Freund.

Previously, psql printed only the last result if a command string
returned multiple result sets. Now it prints all of them. The
previous behavior can be obtained by setting the psql variable
SHOW_ALL_RESULTS to off.

Handling of incompatible clauses while applying extended statistics was
a bit confused - while handling a mix of compatible and incompatible
clauses it sometimes incorrectly treated the incompatible clauses as
compatible, resulting in a crash.
Fixed by reworking the code applying the selected statistics object to
make it easier to understand, and adding a proper compatibility check.

Add a lazy_scan_heap() subsidiary function that handles heap pruning and
tuple freezing: lazy_scan_prune(). This is a great deal cleaner. The
code that remains in lazy_scan_heap()'s per-block loop can now be
thought of as code that either comes before or after the call to
lazy_scan_prune(), which is now the clear focal point. This division is
enforced by the way in which we now manage state. lazy_scan_prune()
outputs state (using its own struct) that describes what to do with the
page following pruning and freezing (e.g., visibility map maintenance,
recording free space in the FSM). It doesn't get passed any special
instructional state from the preamble code, though.
Also cleanly separate the logic used by a VACUUM with INDEX_CLEANUP=off
from the logic used by single-heap-pass VACUUMs. The former case is now
structured as the omission of index and heap vacuuming by a two pass
VACUUM. The latter case goes back to being used only when the table
happens to have no indexes (just as it was before commit a96c41fe).
This structure is much more natural, since the whole point of
INDEX_CLEANUP=off is to skip the index and heap vacuuming that would
otherwise take place. The single-heap-pass case doesn't skip any useful
work, though -- it just does heap pruning and heap vacuuming together
when the table happens to have no indexes.
Both of these changes are preparation for an upcoming patch that
generalizes the mechanism used by INDEX_CLEANUP=off. The later patch
will allow VACUUM to give up on index and heap vacuuming dynamically, as
problems emerge (e.g., with wraparound), so that an affected VACUUM
operation can finish up as soon as possible.
Also fix a very old bug in single-pass VACUUM VERBOSE output. We were
reporting the number of tuples deleted via pruning as a direct
substitute for reporting the number of LP_DEAD items removed in a
function that deals with the second pass over the heap. But that
doesn't work at all -- they're two different things.
To fix, start tracking the total number of LP_DEAD items encountered
during pruning, and use that in the report instead. A single pass
VACUUM will always vacuum away whatever LP_DEAD items a heap page has
immediately after it is pruned, so the total number of LP_DEAD items
encountered during pruning equals the total number vacuumed-away.
(They are _not_ equal in the INDEX_CLEANUP=off case, but that's okay
because skipping index vacuuming is now a totally orthogonal concept to
one-pass VACUUM.)
Also stop reporting the count of LP_UNUSED items in VACUUM VERBOSE
output. This makes the output of VACUUM VERBOSE more consistent with
log_autovacuum's output (because it never showed information about
LP_UNUSED items). VACUUM VERBOSE reported LP_UNUSED items left behind
by the last VACUUM, and LP_UNUSED items created via pruning HOT chains
during the current VACUUM (it never included LP_UNUSED items left behind
by the current VACUUM's second pass over the heap). This makes it
useless as an indicator of line pointer bloat, which must have been the
original intention. (Like the first VACUUM VERBOSE issue, this issue was
arguably an oversight in commit 282d2a03, which added the heap-only
tuple optimization.)
Finally, stop reporting empty_pages in VACUUM VERBOSE output, and start
reporting pages_removed instead. This also makes the output of VACUUM
VERBOSE more consistent with log_autovacuum's output (which does not
show empty_pages, but does show pages_removed). An empty page isn't
meaningfully different to a page that is almost empty, or a page that is
empty but for only a small number of remaining LP_UNUSED items.

Andrew Gierth reported that it's possible to crash the backend if no
pg_attrdef record is found to match an attribute that has atthasdef set.
AttrDefaultFetch warns about this situation, but then leaves behind
a relation tupdesc that has null "adbin" pointer(s), which most places
don't guard against.
We considered promoting the warning to an error, but throwing errors
during relcache load is pretty drastic: it effectively locks one out
of using the relation at all. What seems better is to leave the
load-time behavior as a warning, but then throw an error in any code
path that wants to use a default and can't find it. This confines
the error to a subset of INSERT/UPDATE operations on the table, and
in particular will at least allow a pg_dump to succeed.
Also, we should fix AttrDefaultFetch to not leave any null pointers
in the tupdesc, because that just creates an untested bug hazard.
While at it, apply the same philosophy of "warn at load, throw error
only upon use of the known-missing info" to CHECK constraints.
CheckConstraintFetch is very nearly the same logic as AttrDefaultFetch,
but for reasons lost in the mists of time, it was throwing ERROR for
the same cases that AttrDefaultFetch treats as WARNING. Make the two
functions more nearly alike.
In passing, get rid of potentially-O(N^2) loops in equalTupleDesc
by making AttrDefaultFetch sort the entries after fetching them,
so that equalTupleDesc can assume that entries in two equal tupdescs
must be in matching order. (CheckConstraintFetch already was sorting
CHECK constraints, but equalTupleDesc hadn't been told about it.)
There's some argument for back-patching this, but with such a small
number of field reports, I'm content to fix it in HEAD.

Previously if hot standby was enabled, archive recovery exited with
an error when it found WAL generated with wal_level=minimal.
But if hot standby was disabled, it just reported a warning and
continued in that case. Which could lead to data loss or errors
during normal operation. A warning was emitted, but users could
easily miss that and not notice this serious situation until
they encountered the actual errors.
To improve this situation, this commit changes archive recovery
so that it exits with FATAL error when it finds WAL generated with
wal_level=minimal whatever the setting of hot standby. This enables
users to notice the serious situation soon.
The FATAL error is thrown if archive recovery starts from a base
backup taken before wal_level is changed to minimal. When archive
recovery exits with the error, if users have a base backup taken
after setting wal_level to higher than minimal, they can recover
the database by starting archive recovery from that newer backup.
But note that if such backup doesn't exist, there is no easy way to
complete archive recovery, which may make the database server
unstartable and users may lose whole database. The commit adds
the note about this risk into the document.
Even in the case of unstartable database server, previously by just
disabling hot standby users could avoid the error during archive
recovery, forcibly start up the server and salvage data from it.
But note that this commit makes this procedure unavailable at all.
